Advanced Setup

—Continued

If you connect a component to more than one audio
input, such as a DVD player connected to analog, digital,
multichannel, and HDMI inputs, you can use the
[AUDIO SEL] button to select which audio input you
want to use to listen to that component.

Normally, the AV receiver detects the format of digital
input signals automatically. However, if you experience
either of the following issues when playing PCM or DTS
sources, you can specify the signal format manually.
• If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are cut

off, try the PCM setting.

• If noise is produced when fast forwarding or rewind-

ing a DTS CD, try the DTS setting.

Selecting Audio Inputs

Press the [AUDIO SEL] button
repeatedly to select an audio
input: HDMI > Auto > Multich >
Analog.

HDMI:

Selects the assigned HDMI IN, and
the HDMI indicator appears on the
display. (The HDMI IN must
already be assigned to the current
input selector. See page 56.)

Auto:

Selects the assigned COAXIAL or
OPTICAL DIGITAL IN, and the
DIGITAL indicator appears on the
display. (The DIGITAL IN must
already be assigned to the current
input selector. See page 59.) If there
is no digital signal, the analog input
is used instead.

Multich:

Selects the multichannel input, and
the ANALOG indicator appears on
the display. (The multichannel input
must already be assigned to the cur-
rent input selector. See page 60.)

Selects the analog input, and the
ANALOG indicator appears on the
display.
